I cant help it if THATS what Aust post charges!
I cant help if U.S postal people inflict a $9 security surcharge on it!
I need to cover my self incase item goes missing which is why I quote registered price. And not cheaper sea/air mail.

People who buy things dont care if an item gets lost as they can be reimburssed by paypal (which takes money out MY account).
Maybe you could try Ausposts pack and track service? It's only available for parcels to the UK, the U.S and NZ I believe, but it's certainly the next best option to express - @ about half the price
